someone in the thread mentioned they wanted to know about my relationship with my parents, or the relationship of my parents, I don't remember. I also got spanked twice in my life that I remember. Both times I deserved it.
My relationship with my parents is great. Talked with each of them for about 20 minutes tonight. Talk with each of them a couple times a week. They've been married for 35+ years, still go on vacations with each other, never see them have an argument, haven't seen them get in any major disagreement in years. There was never ever any type of heated argument that I can remember, though I know they have had the typical argument. That I know of, (and I'd be shocked if there were), there's never been any straying.
The fact that they never argue isn't because they never talk or whatever. They're best friends.
So does that prove the point that I only feel this way because I came from a nuclear family, or does it blow out of the water the theory that I only feel this way because I came from a broken home and my dad cheated on my mom and used to beat me?
